Thank you to all who recommended & posted reviews of this bag!!
It was just delivered an hour ago.
I was worried about how small it appeared when I removed it from the package....but I loaded it up & it seems to hold quite a bit!
I clipped it to my P3 & it seems like it's going to work really well!
Granted...I am going to have to try it out "on the go"....but so far I like it way better than the SkipHop.
I really appreciate all the advice that's available here!!!
Thanks Again!!
:D

I bet that looks nice.So you decided to keep the black sable?(that was you right who was trying to decide if you should keep it or trade for metallica?)I still haven't decided on my P3.

Yes...it was me!!
I DID keep the Black Sable...of course I am STILL obsessing over the fabric!! I had to exchange my stroller last weekend at BRU because the handles seemed like they had become very loose & were rattling. I started looking at the Metallica AGAIN! But, came home with a new Black Sable.
There is a post on the stroller board today about the Metallica fabric being sturdier & now I am back to wondering if I should exchange again since my new one hasn't been used yet. I love the red...but it's SO NOT ME! What to do...what to do!!
AND...now that I have discovered this forum, my stroller obsession is now accompanied by diaper bag obsessions!!!!
What did I do with all my time before I had this baby??????

Dont' get the red - just admire it! If you can type in capitals that it is not you - maybe you just have a love affair from afar!! :)

Besides, the red Ameribag tote is slightly darker, and the black is too black, so you would no longer match. ;-) Enjoy using the Ameribag tote!!!

I convinced a friend of mine to try one for the back of her PP stroller, and she loves it!!! Like she should have second guessed my recommendation, lol. She was so impressed to find a bag that could handle all 3 sippy cups. On a side note she got the small Timbuk2, and said it was about the same size but lacked the organization of the Ameribag.

Thanks! So, are they not "technically" diaper bags, just fit the bill well?

Correct- they are not technically diaper bags.

Here is my review of the tote, with pictures.

And after 2 full mos of use I admit it is still working great! We recently went on vacation and I usually pull out my Kelty kids daypack. This time I decided to just use the ameribag tote and had no regrets. It works great!

:P The red is *not* darker, you booger! Well, maybe just a smidge. ;) ;) It matches great though! But, I agree, if you don't think the red is "you", you might regret getting it. :)

Here's a pic of my P3 Metallica with my Ameribag:
